Earn for Peer Reviews

ResearchHub compensates researchers for peer-reviewing scientific preprints. Unlike traditional academic peer review, which is typically unpaid and can take months, reviews on ResearchHub are bounty-based — each paper carries a specific reward, and accepted reviews earn ResearchCoin (RSC).

Browse open peer-review bounties below to find papers in your field of expertise. Each listing includes the paper, reward amount, and submission deadline. When you find a match, submit a structured review following our peer review guidelines. Reviews are evaluated by the requesting author or our editorial team, and approved submissions receive compensation promptly.

Quality peer review is essential to the scientific process, and we believe reviewers deserve to be treated accordingly. By attaching real compensation to reviews, ResearchHub incentivizes faster, more thorough feedback — feedback that helps authors strengthen their work and helps readers assess new research. Reviewers also build a public track record of contributions that strengthens their academic profile over time.

Whether you are a graduate student engaging with the latest research, a postdoc building your review track record, or an experienced scientist who wants fair compensation for work you would do regardless, ResearchHub makes peer review worth your time. Browse the open bounties to get started.
